Bills coach Doug Marrone is expected to address defensive end Marcell Dareus‘ arrest when he meets the media on Tuesday afternoon and reporters will be armed with copies of the police report when they meet the coach.

The Hamburg (N.Y.) Police released the report, via Mike Rodak of ESPN.com, of Dareus arrest on Tuesday. It reveals that he faces misdemeanor charges of reckless endangerment, reckless driving and participating in an illegal speed contest after being arrested on May 30th. Police received a call that two vehicles were racing that afternoon and an officer dispatched to investigate found Dareus’ white Jaguar on the side of the road.

Witnesses said that Dareus’ car had left the roadway while traveling at a high rate of speed and crashed into a tree near the Mongolian Buffet restaurant. The crash damaged both the car and the tree and the driver of the other car has thus far eluded law enforcement. Dareus was arrested and released with an appearance ticket and a summons, which he answered at a hearing on Monday.

Dareus, who was arrested earlier this offseason for possession of synthetic marijuana, is due back in court on June 17.

The American Mensa Society has an all points bulletin out for one of their members. He drives a white Jag,plays ball for Buffalo and was recently arrested for having fake weed.
anyone with information on this person’s whereabouts should contact us immediately.

I live about 5 minutes from that intersection, which has dense traffic since it is between a large mall, a Home Depot and a Toy R Us. Anyone who would drag race on McKinley Parkway or Milestrip Rd is both stupid and homicidal.

Why are so many rich football players smoking synthetic marijuana!?! It must be that synthetic doesn’t pop up on drug tests? But still synthetic is for people that can’t afford real marijuana or don’t really know where to get real marijuana. Im just thinking that nfl athletes would be smoking the real good stuff that doesn’t mess you up!

Some of the folks on here slay me. So he’s more stupid if he gets caught with synthetic weed than real weed? Well obviously he likes to smoke and rather than risk a drug suspension he chose to smoke a synthetic “herb”. Really shouldn’t be anybody’s business, I guess in Alabama they will charge you for fake weed!Lol Thats like getting a DUI for drinking too much O’Douls!

Now the racing is just juvenile, asinine, and dangerous. I don’t think he should lose his job or be punished at his job for this behavior however.

If you want to be treated like a man, then act like a man. Act like an immature teenager and that’s how the world will treat you. During his next apology he can spare us the talk about how is a good guy who doesn’t look for trouble.

Lol what an idiot…I mean if i was that rich, i’d probably take my car to the track…you have be a complete idiot to be drag racing during rush hour, lol and then crash the damn car…INTO A TREE…near an asian buffet! very embarrassing to himself and the bill’s organization.

First idiot don’t drag race a jaguar. That is stupid who cares if you jag is Sorta quick. Take yourself and buy a car built for that purpose and go to the track. Heck if middle class people can afford to do that you can too. Oh you might run into people with fast cars that can drive.

One year, definitely. I remember when Donte Stallworth killed that unfortunate man on his way home from work. Goodell justifiably said his actions tarnished the shield and reflected very badly on everyone in the NFL. If this idiot hadn’t had the eminently good fortune of crashing into the tree and had instead ploughed into the restaurant the body count could have been enormous!!!!!!!

At the very minimum it should be at least eight games and the state of New York needs to permanently suspend his license. This idiot should never allowed behind the wheel of a car, EVER again.
